Tomorrow we will get our certificates. I'm happy about it! Now I want to look back and recollect what happened in these 6 months.
I met 10 great people including our teacher Kristina and my group mates. I learnt much from them.
The most important thing that I got here is self-confidence while communicating with foreigners. I overcame the fear of speaking to foreigners thanks to our teacher. Now it is not a problem to me to start speaking. Only a year ago it was a great problem for me to come up to a volunteer and start speaking to him/he, especially to ask some questions! Now after having so many expat-guests in our classroom I understood that they understand me and I understand them. It's a great achievement!
Secondly, I found that Internet exists not only for writing e-mails and searching for friends, but it is also very useful in teaching and learning English! I know now many useful for me as a teacher URLs! Thirdly, I learnt much from my group mates because when we presented our research papers I had many questions and I had my group mates answer them. Now when I have a certain problem I know who I can ask. Fourth, I learnt much about the American culture because before I didn't have a chance to have an American friend. In these 6 months we had a Christmas party, the day after tomorrow we are going to have St. Patrick's Day and it's great! I know now that Americans don't celebrate the 8th of March, they are not forced to serve in the army, I tasted American cookies, an apple pie, 'spider drink" (don't remember its real name). There were may good things as long with tiredness, nervousness, hard work. I'm grateful that, in spite of too much work and study and tiredness, I had this chance to study here, to meet new friends and to meet such a teacher like Kristina.Though somebody can think it is the end, I don't think so. It is only the beginning!
I wish good luck to my dear group mates and our teacher!
